Walking Is Hard
Cross-platform Java 8
Creatures that evolve to traverse increasingly difficult terrain.
The creature's DNA describes its joints and muscles that connect them, as well as all their attributes. The muscles are in physics terms a spring and a dampener with a rest state that varies from 1 to 0.5 times their original length from a sinus function over time with an aribitrary phase and frequency.
After the first lanuch "config.properties" will be created where you can tweak settings.
